About this listen
When Rocky Elmore joined the United States Border Patrol, he knew it would be a journey fraught with danger. But little did he know that the very real trails he walked night after night would soon lead him into surreal encounters from a different dimension. This was never more evident than when the ghost of a recently fallen fellow agent began to appear on top of the cliff from which he died. It marked the beginning of the end to one of the most bizarre series of events in the history of the US Border Patrol.
This collection of true stories provides a rare look into law enforcement that includes not only the routine nightly patrols of the USBP but also actual paranormal activity as it happened to the agents in the field. Listeners will go on nightly patrols with the agents of the Brown Field Border Patrol Station, and will face their worst fears as they come face to face with smugglers, mountain lions, ghosts, and even a Sasquatch in this isolated no-man's land. Out on Foot takes place in the mysterious Otay Mountains just east of San Diego, California. It is an emotional roller coaster ride that is not for the faint of heart.

Story
These are the stories that defy conventional logic. The proverbial vanished without a trace incidences, which happen a lot more (and a lot closer to your backyard) than almost anyone thinks. These are the missing whose situations are the hardest on loved ones left behind. The cases that are an embarrassment for park superintendents, rangers, and law enforcement charged with Search & Rescue.

In February 1959, a group of nine experienced hikers in the Russian Ural Mountains died mysteriously on an elevation known as Dead Mountain. Eerie aspects of the incident—unexplained violent injuries, signs that they cut open and fled the tent without proper clothing or shoes, a strange final photograph taken by one of the hikers, and elevated levels of radiation found on some of their clothes—have led to decades of speculation over what really happened.

Tales of these Southern Sasquatch creatures—such as the one made famous by the 1972 horror movie The Legend of Boggy Creek—date back to the very origins of Deep South history and are reported even today.

A world in which a handful of panicky survivors choose sides - or are chosen.

On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when - or if - it will go away.

Makes you want to change jobs. Great audio book!
Where does Out on Foot rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Definitely one of the best audio books I have listened to. The story is entertaining and I have no doubts that it is true. The narrator selected was a perfect choice for the book, giving a non-stop, great delivery!
What did you like best about this story?
I am fortunate enough to know that parts of this story are absolutely true. I did not work for
the Border Patrol but, I have been fortunate enough to have received some training from them.
Have you listened to any of Richard L. Palmer’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Palmer gives the performance of a seasoned professional.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
"You can run but, you can't hide!"
Any additional comments?
Excellent! On of the best audio books of my considerable collection.

Review for "Out on Foot"
I recommend this book for both its paranormal aspects and , perhaps more importantly, the information communicated regarding what is really happening at our southern border.

Great unusual stories from beyond the average Joe
I heard the author speaking on a pod cast with this calm deep voice. It came alive fast and I was hooked and got the audio book. The book is really good! What's bad is the editing that coud have been a lot better and the voice talent is too stiff, trying to sound cool more than create dynamics and I can hear every punch in and that sucked. It lack depth this way and it bothered me all the way as it could have been a 5star! WHY didn't the author voice record himself, he has the BEST voice ever!? Nonetheless, the stories are great and we are invited into a world many few know about and I loved every (almost) bit of it! This turned into a script would make an excellent MOVIE! Make it happen!

Spine tingling non-fiction, awesome!
This story is incredible. The facts as the author has strung them together and the inflection of the narrator's voice at just the right moments kept me in such a state of anticipation I could hardly wait to hear the next encounter. I highly recommend Out on Foot.

Very good
I enjoyed this book immensely and came away with a tremendous respect for the border patrol. Even without the spooky happenings it takes tremendous courage to patrol our borders! There are certainly some interesting tales to ponder in this book and it raises more questions than answers. Drives the point home (at least to me) that there is more out there than we can explain.

A Bit Rambling
First of all, I thank the author for his service. That said, this was maybe 8% ghost stories, 35% mountain lion stories, and the rest are general border patrol experiences. Sometimes bit rambling and felt a little disorganized. It was still entertaining and informative.

A well written book and an awesome read or listen.
I couldn't stop listening to it. The stories about what our border patrol encounters is mindboggeling. It really makes you wonder how many illegals are killed by mountain lions alone. If you want to know why we should secure the border read this book. It will open your eyes to how dangerous certain parts are.
